MUTE Button
Press the MUTE button on the front panel or the remote control to shut off the
speakers temporarily, for example, to answer the telephone.
The sound stops and the MUTE indicator appears in
the display.
Press the MUTE button again to cancel the mute function and restore the sound.
The MUTE indicator disappears.
The mute function will also be canceled automatically by pressing the VOL. DOWN
( ) or VOL. UP (+) buttons.
Stereo Headphone Jack
This system includes a stereo PHONES jack on the front panel of the main unit.
You may connect a set of stereo headphones, not included, to this jack for private
listening without disturbing others.
The main speakers are automatically shut off when headphones are connected to
the PHONES jack. Make sure that the plug from your headphones is fully inserted
into the headphone jack. If the plug is not fully inserted the sound may be intermittent,
or you may only hear sound from one side of the headphones.
IMPORTANT: To prevent hearing damage always set the volume control to a
low level before you connect the headphones. Then connect the headphones,
put them on, and very gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening
level. Remember that CDs may contain both very soft and very loud passages.
Adjust the volume to a comfortable level using a louder passage, so that you
always know what the maximum level will be.
